A new culinary destination has opened just outside Jerusalem, bringing a wood-fired pizza experience and handcrafted cocktails to the area. Amore del Pizza, located approximately seven minutes from the city near Route 443, operates from a rustic truck setup with outdoor seating and a relaxed countryside atmosphere. The truck is drawing attention for its approach to Italian-style pizza, artisanal preparation methods, and late evening hours on weeknights.

Concept and Background

Amore del Pizza is led by a chef trained in Italy and France, where he learned traditional dough-making and European culinary techniques. The focus at the truck centers on freshly prepared ingredients and careful craftsmanship. According to the information shared, all toppings are cut and prepped on site, and canned vegetables are not used in the kitchen. The dough undergoes a special fermentation process that the chef developed based on his training abroad.

The space provides a casual open-air dining environment, with seating arranged next to the truck, creating a countryside dining setting close to Jerusalem. Visitors can enjoy food outside in a relaxed setting with surrounding scenery and fresh air. The place has been highlighted for its atmosphere in addition to the food concept.

Menu Details

While the truck’s name highlights pizza, the menu includes more than classic pies. The offerings feature:

Wood-fired pizzas with handcrafted dough

Freshly cut toppings prepared on site

Pastas made to order

Salads

Cocktails

Soft drinks and hot beverages

Additional rotating specials

Each pizza order is prepared individually, and the chef personally manages the process. The truck focuses on fresh ingredients and a style closer to Italian tradition. A dessert selection is also occasionally available, depending on service days.

Setting and Dining Experience

The truck sits in a semi-rural environment near Givat Ze’ev, with outdoor seating that allows guests to enjoy the surrounding nature. There are areas for adults to relax and a simple setup suitable for families. The open-air experience is part of the appeal, especially for diners looking for a calm setting close to the city.

The operator engages directly with guests during service. Food is prepared to order, and the pace is designed around quality rather than fast turnover. The location attracts both local residents and visitors seeking a destination-style pizza outing close to Jerusalem.
